Potato Salad Almost Ruins Family

Hey Sharks!

Welcome back to Emjae’s Blog! Oh boy do I have a funny story to share with you this week. So, my sister threw my nephew a birthday party, just a BBQ style family party, nothing crazy. She asked me to makes mom’s potato salad (because I make it better than she does). I (the stoner) obviously wait till 9:00PM the night before to start it, since there’s no time like the very last minute!  All was going well… (hits bong)

I opened the pepper and poured it in as usual, without looking. Honestly, who has time to look before pouring! What a huge mistake! I poured it out of the spooning side not the sprinkling side. Seeing how I waited until the last minute I did not have time to do it over (well I didn’t want to do it over). How does one rectify such a fuck up you ask?!? Well, first of all, I took a bong rip of some Purple Trainwreck. Then,  I chose to put the top half of my Potato salad in a strainer and try rinsing the pepper off.  Did it work? I’ll let you know when I get there...  So I took my half rinsed pot salad out of the sink while dripping fluids out of my nose and eyes (the red eyes may not be from the pepper), mixed in my mayo, and prayed no one would notice the massive amount of pepper that DID NOT rinse out.  Back to your question, did it work? Hell to the NO.

Perfectly peppered potato anyone?

The next morning I covered my mess up with real bacon bits because bacon fixes everything.  I also decided I would not tell anyone about my mess in hopes that no one noticed. Surprise they noticed!!! Not only did they all have something to say about my over peppering but apparently I under cooked the potatoes as well. Wow! Way to be grateful for me taking time out of my busy life to make potato salad for a party I’m a GUEST at. Anyone that knows me knows I can’t even make it anywhere on time due to my bunch of wild things. Never mind expect me to make EDIBLE food! I say it’s their fault for expecting too much from me.

To make matters worse my family is convinced that I fucked it up on purpose. Apparently they think I think if I make bad potato salad no one will ever ask me to make anything again. Let me let you all know that is not what happened but, I do hope it works out this way! I think that’s a genius move, that I am just not sharp enough to come up with… or am I? Nope I’m not… but maybe I am?  I’ll let you be the judge

Till next week, Keep Swimming, Keep smoking, keep smiling

Ever wonder who keeps the waves flowing over here?

Hey Sharks! I thought it was about time I introduce myself. My name is Emjae as in MJ as in Mary Jane. My parents were Pot Head Hippies who thought it would be funny and not as obvious as calling me Mary Jane. Most people just call me Emma. I am more of a behind the scenes type a gal here at Talking Seaweed. I do a lot of answering emails and mainly just keeping the guys in line and on track especially on business outings. I’m sure you’ve heard their podcast, they're easily distracted by blunts and snacks.

Actual picture from tonight.

Enough about the guys let’s get back to me. From this point on I will be writing a weekly blog on only god knows what, because I have no clue! I may write about my home life, which includes a wild and crazy household. I have a small litter of children, a flock of creatures that look like mini Velociraptors, a few cats (not quite a cat lady…yet), and I would love to add some goats to the mix, but I haven’t figured out how to get my husband to get on board with it yet. As you can imagine that in itself makes for great content. Some weeks ill write about all the exciting adventures we have going on here at Talking Seaweed. I'll make sure I share all of the exciting news and the fun times we have here at TS. I also have a personal grow I will write about from time to time. Maybe even throw in a strain review or two.  If my life is just flat out boring ill give my takes on the latest TS podcasts and maybe even crack a few jokes at Bobby and Jon's expense.

To conclude, I would like to congratulate TS on the launch of the W.E.Ed. Project! I would also like everyone to know that I came up with this concept all on my own! So congrats to me!!!! By "I came up with it all on my own", I mean I came up with the name. Which is the same thing? Well, actually,  I came up with the concept for an acronym. And that’s the truth! But, I didn’t even know what an acronym was. I just said we should have letters that make a word that means something! So the whole thing… my idea!

Till next week, Keep Swimming, Keep smoking, keep smiling

Benny Doubt Here!!

Benny Doubt Here.

I'm waiting for this Nova vs Michigan game to start.  So as most of us do with extra time, i was scrolling through TalkingSeaweed.com.  I noticed that the "newest" blog was about the NE Canna Con.  I bet they meant to have that blog up last Monday.  You remember last Monday right?  it was the day after the Convention.  1 week ago.  8 days since the guys were with Emjae at the Hynes Center.  I sure they meant to be faster than 8 days.  I'm sure the next one will be faster.  In other news I'm sure Sam didn't bet on this game.

Dictated, not read. 

Bobby and Jon break the record for Most Fun at a convention 2nd year in a row!

Jon and Bobby went on a quest over the weekend.  That quest was to have the most fun at the NECanna Convention in the history of the convention.  They started their journey outside in front of the Hynes Convention Center.  As they looked around the street (while enjoying a Fronto Leaf filled with Super Pineapple Haze) they saw all of the people gearing up to head in and see what the Cannabis community had to offer.  It was at that moment  they came to a strong realization.  They needed to get some food.  Armed with a newly enlivened hunger for chicken fingers they embarked back across the street to the bar.  The munchies were strong.  They ate as much as possible and went back out side to enjoy another Fronto.  So far, so fun

Upon entering they could see this year was much different than the conventions of years past.  There was  a station to enter your name address and other information that would be printed on a badge to wear in the convention.  They promptly lied (google is watching) and had fake info on their chest.  The tables were bigger and fuller this year.  They stretched further also.  Where there was once a small area exclusively for cannabis education, there was now a second area for vendors and booths.  The space was completely used for the first time in recent memory.  The mood was also different.  Everyone there seemed to know the same thing.  Cannabis is going fully recreational in July and there is much to be done.  After meeting up with some old friends (at the New England Grassroots booth) , also meeting some with new friends (at the Green Nurses booth), the guys got to work.  Rubbing elbows and creating friction with all of the cannabis industries’ best and brightest minds.  The fun was great.  The experience was great.  The people were also great.  The future of Cannabis in Massachusetts is even greater. 

After the convention the munchies snuck up on the guys once more.  But that wasn’t the only hunger.  The hunger to turn business into pleasure was overwhelming.  The guys hit up a local bar and decided to meet up with some locals and talk a little seaweed.  After giving away the legal limit of cannabis to everyone that would talk to them the guys turned their attention to the real goal of the day.  The after party.  The real fun.

Jon and Bobby headed to a secret location on Newbury St. where they were met by a large bouncer checking IDs.  This is the first time in the history of TalkingSeaweed.com they had their IDs checked to get stoned.  They passed the bouncers age test and handed him some edibles on the way in.  Then they took a secret elevator to heaven.  As they walked in Jon and Bobby were met by another bouncer. The official bouncer of heaven.   He also wanted to make sure the two weren’t assholes.  Armed with a pocket full of weed and a belly full of whiskey the guys started their next mission.  To find a charger for Jon’s phone.  After 10 minutes of asking around for a charger that would fit the phone, the weed in their pockets was basically screaming to come out.  In the front of the venue there were vendors, a sitting area, and a dance floor.  But just like a mullet the real party was in the back.  A door led to the back area.  In the back there were 2 smoke machines.  They were called Bobby and Jon.  They rolled up another 5 frontos and took the metaphoric elevator to heaven this time. 

After a couple more beers and a couple more blunts, Jon and Bobby decided to leave.  But the fun had just begun.  The next few hours were spent finishing all the blunts and recording a podcast.  Clips coming soon!!

David Price Brings the Heat in his 2018 debut. Proving Bobby is right .... for now

I know I am staking my name on this take.  I know this is the first prediction I have made since you all started listening. But we will see a different David Price this year.  We will finally see a focused Price with a winning attitude here in Boston.  He lost a lot of time and respect last year in a town that doesn't have much to give of either.  Yesterday he started 2018 with a 7 inning, 4 hit, shut out.  Dominant performance.  If he can stay healthy for the season and they use him properly,Ii think we will see the return of David Price the ace.  The David Price we were all excited for when he was signed.  But this time he wont have to be the number 1.  Sale is obviously that guy.  I think this is exactly what Price needs coming off of last year.  He wont have the pressure of being a number 1 guy which will release some of the pressure.  I know 1 game (especially in baseball) doesn't mean that much.  But David Price showed us what he has left.  He showed us all that he is still capable of being the guy we all remember facing from the Rays.  The Sox will have a serious pitching staff this year if Price can keep this up.  Look forward two #1 pitchers this year.  The Sox are coming for their 3rd straight AL East title this year.  They are also looking to get their first ALDS win with this group of players.  With David Price in prime form the World Series is that much closer in reach.

Weather Men and Women are a Day Late Giant Storm Short!!

Benny Doubt, here

Im looking out my windows at the rain falling on a windy, cold, Massachusetts Spring evening.  Im sure God meant for it to be nice out.  But it's ok.  The Weather Men and Women of Massachusetts couldnt help but talk about the giant storm that was coming.  It was coming Wednesday.  It was coming hard.  It was coming fast. We all needed bread and milk.  We needed cereal.  We needed tampons.  Im sure they didn't mean to get all the lovely aging people of the Commonwealth who believe the news scared.  But the grocery store was packed when i went to get bread and milk and tampons.  It rained all day today.  But the storm is coming while we sleep.  Im sure they meant to say the storm was actually tomorrow.  At least we got tampons. 

Sleep well... Sorry for wasting your time.
